One Christmas me and a friend worked as Street musicians. I learned a lot of respect for serious street performers during that time. Even the guy who dressed like a regular beggar but had brilliant improvisational stand up.

Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.

There can be stupidly obvious ones, then there's the ones that copy top comments from years ago. Gawd I got some nostalgia for the 00-early 10s internet. It all feels so...fake now

u/GNav 13d ago
But...you asked the question...

u/Mysterious_Ad_8105 13d ago
Just an FYI, as an evidentiary matter, it’s entirely proper to object to hearsay in witness testimony even when it was your own question that elicited the hearsay. If I ask, “How do you know that my client owned a gun” and you respond, “Your client’s neighbor told me that your client owns a lot of guns,” that’s likely objectionable hearsay and I’m well within my rights to object.
The problem isn’t that the objection is improper (it’s not), but that I shouldn’t be asking open-ended questions that give the witness the opportunity to delve into hearsay in the first place. That’s the part that’s sloppy lawyering. Instead, I should be asking pointed questions that I already know the answer to like, “You never personally seen my client holding a gun, correct?”

u/GNav 13d ago
God damn. TIL.
I cant recall much of the video clips (usually watch em drunk and bored), but I found it funny because (as best as I can remember) the lawyer objected before he even got two words out.
I definitely get what youre saying about the open ended questions though. Isnt it supposed to be practice to almost lead the opposition to divulge what you what, rather than hoping they just openly self incriminate.
